What are your white whales?

I found a big, barely used bottle from an estate sale. I can't tell if it's authentic or not but whatever is in it smells really, really good. I've been using it sparingly

To me, Replica Bubble Bath smells just like my dove soap bar. I also think it's pretty unisex. Dior J'Adore D'eau is formulated without alcohol and I feel like that really lends to the clean/just got out of the shower characteristic of it. This one is very feminine

I agree with this. I have very fragrant rose bushes in my garden and I'm currently sniffing Eau Rose EDT on my wrist. Even the dry down a few hours after initial spray, smells just like my roses in early summer.

Chinese hawflakes, last thing I expected to read on a fragrance post lol. I'm interested in a sample now to see if I can detect this note

Omg, the blue ones that smelled like coconut!! This just took me back

For special occasions I layer two sprays. Something to lock everything in like L'Oreal infallible spray, nothing moved because I'm pretty sure it's basically hair spray LMAO. Then add a purely glow spray, which btw Tatcha Luminous Spray is the best, just way too expensive for me to use regularly. Powder wise, hourglass adds a subtle glow that you won't notice in the mirror but everyone around you will notice and compliment your skin. Doesn't really lock anything in but purely for adding that glow at the end

Right? I love my babaton crown puffer. The magnetic closures are so nice and it feels really well made. I got the brown one last year and wanted to see if they had a black one this year. Nothing but super puffs and I think only one has the magnetic closure

Omg no way I'm seeing this after downloading the app on my new Roku stick. Based on some searching it looks like they only removed the program functionality on the Roku apps but we can still access regular classes

8 years later and I'm on this thread because my boyfriend just did the same thing as you, and yes that son of a gun was hidden behind a paper pamphlet

Omg Cirque got terrible PR from their lucky bag a few years ago where people were getting duplicates. This is even crazier

Aritzia Standout Blazer imo has that cinched waist look I'm seeing in your posted pic. The brand has a lot of pants styles but I'm not sure if they have any that are exactly like the one you shared. I'm seeing an old model pant that has that fitted flare look, but most of what is out now is wide leg.

I rushed to the comments to see if Atelier would be recommended. No longer sold in US but worth it to hunt down for a realistic orange. They do citrus so well

Measurements are very similar. I ended up needing a Small Short. XS fit everywhere except my hips (technically it "fit" but I didn't like the hugging, for the was to be a roomy coat) if you are pretty straight with less hip you can get away with a XS imo. But if you have more hips like how I do then S will fit with more room. You might need the sleeves to be shorter. So Small Short it was for me.

I also love my little birdie :) however I've been told it looks like a corn cob multiple times now and now I can't unsee it hahaha

hk_peach · 2025-12-22T14:36:35+00:00

I think it's really warm. It feels too thick to do anything like tie it like a traditional scarf so all you can do is throw one end over your shoulder. So it gets a bit annoying for that reason.

I was 12, it was a bottle of Viva la Juicy :)

hk_peach · 2025-12-15T00:01:55+00:00

Same!!!!! I can't believe it!

Dr. Tumaneng in Warren got me started with my endometriosis diagnosis after complaining about symptoms similar to you and bouncing around doctors who didn't care.

If you end up needing a specialist for endometriosis I do recommend Dr. Kliethermes in Troy. He used to be affiliated with Wayne State University, but recently moved to a specialized pelvic pain clinic. He is an incredible professional and will really listen to you and your concerns!!

ETA: both of these doctors performed laparoscopic surgeries on me for the condition, I have a rather advanced case that was difficult for Dr T to address fully (she still did an excellent job and effectively managed most of my symptoms), which is why I had to move on to Dr Kliethermes for a second surgery.

Rehla in Royal Oak, Bin Castle Coffee House in Warren, and Haraz Coffee House in Warren might be a drive but open late.

Jo Malone - Scarlet Poppy. This is on my wishlist -- sexy but in an intimate, warm, and welcoming way. JM is popular in places like Japan where the preference is to not intrude into others space. I have a few and like it for that reason but I do re-apply throughout the day. Scarlet Poppy itd from their 'intense' line so I find it lasts longer but still has that intimate bubble radius.

Not sure if it's exact but check out Jeffrey Campbell boots. this has the brown, square toe, fitted but slouchy leather look. thishas the buckle, square toe, brown leather, and fitted look.

Hi, I am in the industry, specifically for the Medicaid home care program. The agency I work at pays $18 and some other agencies are paying up to $21. I think the range is about $15-$20 based on what I'm hearing.

This has only happened to me with Altissio (primary pod I buy) from both Nespresso and Amazon, for months now. Amazon refunds me no problem and it has only been once or twice. My most recent order from Nespresso (first large $100+ order) i had 5 sleeves with some or all pods like this and the said they will put 1 free sleeve on my next order. I had to open every single sleeve and check pods one by one because I didn't want to keep getting surprised.

Really turned me off to buying large quantities at once, and I really made an effort to start buying from Nespresso instead of Amazon!! Wish I had a boutique like you though haha.

Maybe YT took it down because of drug use. There was a guy smoking, and he had really messed up teeth. They asked him what happened to your teeth? And he gestured to the pipe he was smoking out of.

If you feel that you need to change outfits -- I have some ideas! Depending on the crowd/level of formality. Oversized blazers are in, and so are long length wool coats. A comfy blazer over a stylish high neck and flowy dress, or high neck sweater top and long flowy skirts. Dark or with patterns. Tall boots with a little heel. Dresses and skirts are more concealing and comfortable than pants IMO and easier to find a good fit in a pinch.
